Bodegas el Maño

I really liked this place. Atmosphere was great, super buzzy and a warm interiors, felt very authentic and not at all like a tourist trap. The service was also good. The food was also great, although I would’ve ordered slightly differently next time. We ordered the crispy pork belly, which was exactly as it says it is but in my opinion really could’ve done with a sauce or something. The patatas bravas were good, I loved the presentation but the potatoes could’ve done with being cooked a little longer. The stand out dish for me was the burrata with the prawn tails - I thought this dish was so clever. It was covered in a smoky, burnt garlic oil which balanced out the sweetness of the prawn and buratta - absolutely perfect for dipping some bread into. I thought the tomato salad with gildas diced up was very clever as well. I regret not ordering the aubergine crisps as they looked great! Would definitely return, very good value as well.

The best culinary experience in Madrid! I came here with my family and we spent a great time. The atmosphere felt authentic, full of locals and surely not a trap for tourists. The food was delicious, especially the lamb and the cheese cake! Strongly suggested

Our favorite spot in Madrid. We didn't have a reservation but they squeezed us in, telling us we can only stay one hour max and that was completely fine. We ordered quickly, the food arrived quickly and everything was delicious -- there were no misses. The place is small and tight but it's such a quintessential Madrid eatery with traditional ceramics and charming details. Our server was so friendly and tentative, especially because she knew we were on an hour countdown. Usually they leave you alone to 'sobremesa' it all evening and night but she worked with us. Could have eaten here everyday but we only found this place the night before we left.

Great food and drinks! English menu available which is the first I’ve seen in Madrid. Quality of the food was excellent. It was a fault of the management that they had only one staff member working as it was quite busy - but no fault of the staff member! She was excellent too

Excellent place. Beautiful, really tasty and interesting food and the service is just nice people that make you feel at home. Highly recommend.

Would recommend to anyone to try the patatas bravas!! The burrata was also amazing 💗 The prices are all very affordable and the staff is very sweet 🫶🏼

If it’s not the best restaurant in Madrid then I don’t know what is! I have been there 3 times during my stay (it never happens, I go max 2 times to fact check if it was actually that good). It was a pleasure each time, the food is delicious and the price to value is amazing. I got a steak and it tasted like a proper dry aged steak and was melting in my mouth. It offers the smoky flavour and the sides that comes with are very well balanced. The other day I also got tortilla the patatas and it was the best tortilla of my life. The texture is indescribable. Really outstanding restaurant! Congratulations ☺️

Lively atmosphere, good tapas, quick in and out. Small tapas bar so come off hours like 4-5pm where it’s easy to get a seat. Had the Gilda (anchovies on olive and pepper - OK), prawn tails in olive oil and burrata (excellent! Dip the bread in the oil)
